CabKey™ is a compact universal cabinet key tool designed for opening common service cabinet locks used in utilities, maintenance, and technical work.

Instead of carrying multiple keys, CabKey combines several common lock profiles into one durable, easy-to-use cabinet key tool. It’s built for everyday service tasks where reliability and simplicity matter.

CabKey operates manually, without electronics or moving parts that can fail. Insert the tool into the lock, apply hand torque, and open the cabinet. Designed to handle typical wear, corrosion, and stiff mechanisms found in real-world service environments.

Now upgraded based on customer feedback:

  • Extended steel pins for better engagement with deeper locks
  • Wider drive wings for improved grip and turning control
  • Reinforced keyring loop for increased everyday durability
  • Heat-treated 40Cr steel pins (HRC 48–52) for strength and wear resistance
  • More compact design for easier everyday carrying

Compatible with common service cabinet lock types, including:

  • Double slit
  • Square
  • Triangle
  • Service hex
  • Half moon

Key features:

Universal cabinet key for multiple lock types
Compact and easy to carry
Manual operation — no batteries, no electronics
Durable construction for daily use
Designed & made in the EU

CabKey is intended for service cabinets and technical enclosures.

Not compatible with tubular (barrel) locks.

Hi William,

We're sorry to hear about the bent pins. Like any precision tool, CabKey should be used without excessive force to avoid potential damage.

Customer satisfaction is very important to us, and we've already arranged a free replacement for you.

Thank you for your feedback!

Broke in the first panel i used it

We're really sorry to hear that your CabKey broke during its first use.

This is certainly not the experience we want our customers to have, and we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience.

We'd like to make things right by offering you either a free replacement or a full refund, whichever you prefer.

If possible, could you also send us a photo of the broken CabKey? This would help us understand exactly what happened and improve the product.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We appreciate your feedback and hope we can make things right.

Best regards,
CabKey Team

the pins are 2 short, tried on 2 cabs and wasnt long enough

Hi,

We're sorry to hear that CabKey didn't work with your cabinets. Some locks have recessed mechanisms that require longer pins, and we're looking into improving compatibility with these designs.

We'd be happy to offer you a full refund. If possible, we'd also really appreciate a photo of the locks you tried, as it would help us improve CabKey.

Please write to us info@cab-key.com

Thank you for your honest feedback!

good product

Works perfectly with different keyholes. Sometimes it is very hard to open the enclosures if they are rated IP54 or higher. Then you need a little more strength and leverage.

Use it weekly

Quality is not as expected, pins huh be lots of play in them and I fear will eventually break, very hulk for a key chain! Get rid of the 1/4 drive in there and make it smaller

Thanks for the feedback, Ben. We appreciate you taking the time to share it. The 1/4' drive and longer body were added based on feedback from customers who wanted more leverage, but we understand that this also makes the tool less compact for keychain use. We’re continuing to improve the design, including the pin mechanism and overall durability, and feedback like yours helps us decide where to take the next version.

Really impressed with the key, does exactly what it says on the tin and appears well made. Time will tell how long it lasts but it looks promising.

could do with more of a handle to grip it also a longer version would be good pins are a little on the story side

Very nice gadget, i like it.

It’s a good tool, it will never replace my Knipex Cross Key but it looks acceptable on my key ring for when I’m not in overalls. Good for regularly opened cabinets but struggles a bit on the bigger Rittal ones as it’s too small to get enough torque on it. Would like to see them in brighter colours though.

I used it today for the first time after my holiday, this is aperfect tool! I really like it

E
Eric Vergouw

It works well for cabinets that open easily; for a cabinet that is a bit more difficult to open, the grip on the handle isn't great, but in general, I am happy with it. Let's hope the design has a long lifespan.

Phil Sharp

I thought this was going to be really useful to just have on my key ring.
But first time i tried it, it didn't work at all...!!
I then tried in on two more cabinets, same thing.
Didn't work at all. The pins are to short and not firm enough, they just all move around in the lock and don't hold it enough to turn it.
Absolute rubbish, save your money

Hi Phil,

Sorry to hear CabKey didn't work with the cabinets you tried. We'd really like to understand which lock types caused the issue, as CabKey is designed for specific service lock profiles and we're continuously improving the design based on customer feedback.

Please contact us with a photo of the locks you tried and we'll be happy to look into it and make this right for you.

Overall the key is very good a few slips where it hasn’t engaged properly, could do with having 2 bigger winglets on opposite sides to allow for more turning comfort for those tighter locks,

Works as described! 1 key carried opens many locks.

Thank you, Timothy! We're glad to hear it's working exactly as intended. We really appreciate your support!

I've already recommended it to a colleague who has disdain for carrying multiple keys for entry into panels and cabinets - and my partner wants one just as a stim toy. Great product, well executed.

Thank you so much, Jozef! We're really happy to hear that you've already recommended CabKey to a colleague. That means a lot to us. We truly appreciate your support and we're glad you're enjoying the product!

Great idea. Only good for small plastic cabinets. Needs to be printed on ABS plastic. Bends and twists in anything bigger, a metal verison would be sick

Thank you for your feedback, Gary! We really appreciate your suggestion. We're always collecting customer feedback and exploring ways to improve CabKey, including stronger materials for future versions. Thanks for your support!
